The association, in convention here, late today hears Judge Philip B. Gilliam, famed Denver, Colo., juvenile judge. The nearly 500 educators Thurs day night heard former Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of California urge federal aid to education at their annual banquet. Knight spoke after Dr. Rex Put nam, state superintendent of pub lic instruction, presented the Ore gon Education Citizen plaque to Sweetland. Sweetland is the seventh person to receive the award that goes annually to a non-educator in recognition of the person's con tribution to education. Dr. Putnam cited these meri torious activities of Sweetland. senator, .Milwaukie newspaper publisher and Democratic candi date for secretary of state: He was chairman of the Senate Education Committee at the 105 and 1959 sessions. I He sponsored and championed ! such programs as the state schol arship commission, community college authorization and strengthening of the public retire ment system for educators. Dr. Putnam also praised Sweet land's work on behalf of educa tion through his Milwaukie Re view, saying: "It is a common thing to find as many as a dozen items in a single issue featuring schdols." Sweetland declared accepting the award: "We suddenly have become alive to the responsibility for education which we all bear. "Our whole American system should dedicate itself anew to the greatest secular responsibility of Former Gov. Knight urged fed eral aid to education, asserting that state resources are strained to the breaking point yet more money is needed for education. Knight denied that federal mon. cy will mean federal control. He pointed out that Congress since 1785 has passed more than 160 laws dealing with education. "Relieving our local taxpayers in Hie coming years of explosive growth in the West will be good for Oregon and California and it will not mean socialism and the much feared welfare stale. "More school children by the hundreds of thousands mean that the state cannot provide all the money. . . "The states certainly Califor nia, have reached the point of diminishing returns in taxation. "Every source has been lapped. But Ihe people want and w ill con tinue to demand the best in teachers, building and curriculum." By TOM IIKNSHAW AP NfHstealures Writer Is the Middle East building up lo a new explosion? The fires of Arab nationalism have been banked since the c cnt lul summer of HCiS when li.ui ousted its pro-Wesiorn government and U.S. Marines and British troops saved sh.iky regimes in Lebanon and .Imdan. The tense borders of Israel have been relatively quiet since the fall of 1956 when an Israeli blitz, with French and British support, mopped up the Egyptians in the brief Sue War. Now, sources close to the Middle East arc homnmng to show con cern that lis volatile and oil rich lands are npe for another cris is. They point to these recent de velopments: Troops of Israel and the I' idl ed Arab Republic (Syria' have clashed near the Sea of Galilee in the most intense lighting since the days when Suez was threat ened lo touch oil a general war. Reliable informants insist thai Ihe regime of Iraqui Premier Ah del Karim Kassem is heading toward a violent popular reaction against the government's increas ing involvement with the Commu nists. Jordan's King Hussein has been showing signs ol impatience with the Arab world's handling ol the problem of the Palestinian ref ugees, who were displaced in Ihe Arah-lsracli war more than 10 years ago. Husseig. implacable enemy of Iraq's Kassem and highly suspi cious of the UAR's President Gam al Ahdcl -Nasser, has charged some Arab leaders t Kassem and Nasser'.'! with exploiting the refu gees (or political profit. Add these comparatively minor irritants: Never since the Suez War has Nasser allowed a ship bearing goods (or Israel to pass through Ihe Suez Canal. The blockade is having an effect on Ihe Israeli economy. United Nations troops remain on UAR soil in Egypt, neutraliz ing its border with Israel and keeping the narrow Gulf of Aquaha open lo Israeli shipping lo the new port of Eilat. A border dispute hangs fire between anti-Western Iraq and pro Western Iran. The area in dispute is not far from (he important Iran ian oil refineries in Abadan. The destinies of the countries of the Middle Easl friend and foe are tied so clos ly that a seemingly isol.itcd crisis in one soon becomes a crisis for all. The leader of Ihe Aral) world appears to be the man who speaks Ex-Convict Being Sought SEATTLE AI" - A young Oregon ex-conv id was sought Friday for questioning in the latal shooting of a Seattle cab driver. Ralph Gcmliill, :w. whose body was luund in a field south of here Wednesday night. The King County shenll's ollice said the ex-convict's description was lound to match that of Ihe last passenger known to have en tered GemhiU's taxi. Gemhill's passenger was de scribed as 29, S-lool-H, 175 pounds Willi bushy, brown hair. He was wearing tan pants and a red sweater. A man of thai description hitch ed a ride from Tacoma lo Tenino Wednesday night. Detectives said the man relurned lo Tacoma and stayed overnight at a cheap hotel, but left Thursday morning the lnudot or lakes (he strongest measures against Israel. How would Nasser s archrival, Kassem, react in Ihe event of war between Israel and the UAR? A revolt in Iraq would either destroy Kassem or build up his position as a rival to Nasser. Could Nasser alford lo stand idly by should such a revolt erupt? Or could Hussein, who claims the throne of Iraq through his slain cousin? Hussein's newly expressed con cern for the Palestinian refugees marks a departure from what pre viously has been a united Arab front . Hoes Ibis mean Hussein would negotiate their future with Israel? How would Nasser, Kas sem and even Hussein's people lake such a suggestion? Thus, in the Middle East, small tensions Iced upon one another un til they explode into a major cris is. That's what insiders fear is building up right now. vnsmi, ARE YOU LISTENING?
